Starting this month, the City of Minneapolis will hold four listening and information sessions – two for employees and two for employers – on sick and safe time. In addition to specific presentations for neighborhood and business associations across the city, Department of Civil Rights enforcement staff will hold these sessions to consider public feedback and answer questions related to implementation of the sick and safe time ordinance.

People can find more information and resources about the sick and safe time ordinance at www.minneapolismn.gov/sicktimeinfo. Times and dates of upcoming listening and information sessions will also be updated as soon as possible.

The Minneapolis City Council and Mayor Betsy Hodges approved the sick and safe time ordinance in May. It allows sick and safe time for most Minneapolis workers. Phased enforcement begins July 1. Currently, four out of 10 Minneapolis workers lack access to paid sick time.
